I don't know why this campground fills up so much slower than others - it's the nicest of the non-valley campgrounds I've been to. At the sites were pretty and spacious - mine was particularly private. Nice camp hosts and NP personnel. I wish this one stayed open past labor day - I tried to get one most stay here this season, but ran out of time.

Nice campgrounds. About an hour drive to the Yosemite valley. Spaces are close together but it was quiet from 9pm.
Be sure to drive to the end of the road at sunset for amazing views.

About 20min away from Glacier Point. Clean restroom with flash toilet. Plenty of toilet paper. Drinkable water also available. Various campsite sizes; some are good for 2 cars and tents; others are one vehicle and one tent only. Temperature drops significantly over night because of the 6000ft elevation. Camp fire allowed but need to be monitored at all times. No cellular reception ( ATT and Tmobile)

No lights in any of the out dated bathrooms! Thought they might have been upgraded during the two years that the campground was closed.

Policies & Rules
Arrival & departure
- Ensure you read site alerts and book an appropriate site for your equipment.
- Notify the park if you're arriving late to avoid cancellation of your reservation.
- Contact park services for further information via phone or website.
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
Wildlife & food storage
- Store food and toiletries properly to avoid attracting wildlife; use provided lockers and dispose of waste in bear-proof dumpsters.
Site types & loops
- Horse camp sites are for visitors with horses only; arriving without a horse will result in cancellation.
- Review the 'Need to Know' section for important horse camp rules and regulations.
Utilities
- Potable water is available at designated dump stations near Wawona Campground and Yosemite Valley.
Fires & fuel
- Obtain firewood locally and do not move it to prevent pest spread; it's illegal in some states.
Safety & rules
